I know this is far from now but it'd be nice if the football team could do something in honor of Eli this next season. even having a sticker on the back on the helmets with his name or something

Channel 9 -KCRG here in Cedar Rapids even aired that last night. Newscaster was so choked up she could hardly segway into the weather.

His family used to go to my church. Man, that's such a tough thing, your mind just can't hardly handle it.

I just had my first kid and couldn't fathom going through this. My heart goes out to his family and friends.

RIP Eli

Its moments like this where I remember not to be so upset with a football or basketball game like tonight. This truly is not fair to Eli and his family. RIP buddy!
